We have given them "perks" in academics for decades and no complaints yet. Isn't that worth something. As for the Summit League they owe us a chance to join like South Dakota or at least apply for membership with an open mind. Have the Summit tour the campus, attend a game and show there isn't a hostile and abusive atmosphere at UND. Keeping UND out by saying until the nickname issue is resolved is BS. The NCAA did pick on us for having us choose 2 Sioux tribes instead of 1 like Central Mich, Utah, and FSU. You are not going to get 100 percent of people to agree on anything. Did 100 percent of people agree on a president? Did 100% of people agree to keep Redskins as a nickname for Washington? 67% is a lot from one tribe. The other tribe no one knows because they won't let their people vote. We have had decades of chances??? We have had decades where our nickname was NOT a major issue that we need to be on a blacklist from the NCAA.
